 Talking outside, high intensity working out. Anne founded High Intensity Training in Australia. Yes, yes. So the thing with this is the convention turned me on to a whole different way of life. Sometimes I train in that way, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I can take it a little bit easy on myself, but the diet, the fitness, the different weightlifting, the different information that I've heard through this convention specifically. And he's a friend of Doug McGuff's, Dr. Doug McGuff, one of the best speeches I've ever seen at the convention. Also, Drew Bay, who was one of the original guys talking about high intensity training. And I ended up training in those ways and training a whole bunch of different ways became stronger than I've ever been and laid off a little bit lately. But some interesting stuff, you're going to go over the history of it, all the different dynamics of it. We're excited to hear about it. It's the last speech of the day. Put your thinking caps on, all that fun stuff, and take it away, my man. OK, guys, look, just when I was asked to do the presentation and probably just with Anthony and that, I started corresponding on different websites from America, the Body Buy Science website, Drew Bay's website. And Anthony started to appear on there as well, and we were making little different chats with each other. So I sort of got into this thing of then eventually he said, oh, I'm coming to Australia to do the 21 convention. And I said, well, I live in Australia, I live in Sydney. And if you want to have someone to talk a bit about high intensity training, I sort of put my hand up and said I would. Basically, I sort of thought with, I teach fitness classes, courses, and I'm thinking, well, what am I going to sort of go with you guys? People might not do much fitness. People might do a lot. Where do you fit in with it? So I sort of thought I'd sort of start a little bit of a history of sort of exercise, or a bit of history of the fitness industry in Australia, a little bit about myself. And then I sort of move into a bit of the sort of history of high intensity training, which is probably one of those things that I suppose when you get right into it, you sort of become a bit of a historian. You start to like to hear about the guys from the old days and things like that. And probably that's why I sort of give you those handouts with some of the old sort of bodybuilders from the 70s and 80s and that sort of thing. And those guys are all trained high intensity when it first started. So I thought I'd just start there. Hopefully what is hit doesn't mean much to you or doesn't it? Hopefully by the end of my presentation that some of you guys might start looking at high intensity training and at least understand what it means and as opposed to maybe some other different types of training and how it is different to other styles of training that people might do. So that's what my aim is to achieve that. Hopefully I can, I'll go through the presentation a little bit, probably save questions to the end if that's all right a little bit. Again, hopefully that I could sort of keep you sort of not getting too in depth because that was the other thing I was sort of thinking of if I make it too technical and you might sort of not, you know, you sort of might lose track of that a little bit. So plenty of questions at the end. Sort of that's where hopefully I will end up with a lot of it yourself. So I just sort of start presentation and say my name's Stephen Turner. So just again, so if anyone sort of forgets in that and I'll start from there and we'll work our way through and I'll sort of get you to understand that sort of high intensity sort of training sort of process what it's all about. Okay, just a brief history of the industry and I'm only going back here a little bit. The brief history I'm talking a bit about is my own sort of history a little bit to where I started just like you guys are now. Go into the gym, where it all started. What was it like in them days, you know what I mean? As young fellas like yourselves, that's what I sort of probably looking at a little bit. You know what I mean? So I thought, well, I could go back, you know, fitness has been there thousands and thousands of years or exercise. But just how it's generally developed a little bit over the last sort of 40 odd years or so and probably the experiences I experienced as well going to the gym for the first time, what it was all about and a little bit of differences and how that sort of pale on. So just 1960s and 70s, bodybuilding only gyms. Does that sort of make any sense to anybody? Bodybuilding only gyms. Look, in those days, the gyms were sort of a bit more the old YMCA, police sit-ins and youth club sort of plates only, weights all over the floor, all that sort of thing, dingy sort of rooms for a lot of stuff, you know what I mean? Guys would go in, they'd have the windows all closed and stuff and we'd be all in there sweating and sort of lifting weights. So in the sense then that that's really what the gyms were about in the 60s and 70s. I don't know, again, this is where I come sort of a bit more into it, the 70s, 80s, the Robics Boom. Is anybody sort of what I mean by the Robics Boom? The Jane Fonda, the Libby Newton-Johns. We all wore leotards, we all jumped up on the stage and done exercise to music. It was the first sort of movement where we also started having women in the gyms. So we sort of moved from just males, mainly, mostly, and now we've got women coming to the gyms. So the guys in that are a bit smart, what would they do? They turn up to the Robics class and do the Robics class with the Jane Fonda Leetard, guys with the girls with the Jane Fonda Leetard, et cetera, et cetera. So you sort of went and done those classes mainly to sort of get in interaction with girls and things like that. Sort of moving through to the 80s and 90s we sort of looked at the cardio equipment and various group exercises classes started coming about. So now instead of you going out maybe running, for example, the gyms would have a cardio, what we call cardio section, where they'd have treadmills and bikes, et cetera, et cetera. They'd have group exercise rooms and then we would move into sort of different group exercise classes such as les mills, pump and those types of things. So those pump classes were sort of made for the women to lift weights to a bit of music. That's the les mills sort of aim was. And we sort of also had guys in there as well. But that, and this is one thing I point out with a lot of people, for a lot of women when they pointed out is actually some of those pump classes and stuff, probably just more waste of time, you know what I mean? Because there's not a lot of gains and stuff. But that was another movement. Another movement in the fitness center is another big major shift as we went through in the 80s and 90s. Sort of going now in the 80s and 90s and I'm not sure if anybody of you guys have experienced this. The personal training boom started coming along. The fitness first, club started opening and everyone was doing personal training sessions. It sort of moved from now you had the thing when the rich person sort of went to his dinner, I've got my personal trainer. So, you know, I've got my personal trainer. Oh, my personal trainer does this, my personal trainer does that sort of thing. So if you weren't in the in crowd, unless you had a personal trainer in that sort of, especially in those sort of 90s, and a lot of the health clubs offered them, but you know, you had to pay for them as well. So, now to the present, sort of like to today, to sort of call anything goes, so it types up this PT boxing, Thai throwing, kettlebells. There's a whole sort of different sort of, if you ever go to the gyms, you'll see it all happening or your personal trainers. There's all these different types of training methods. All people trying to sort of get results and things like that with the training. So, we've sort of progressed through the 60s with the old style gyms, basically owned by the bodybuilder or experienced or the guy or the owner would own the gyms. One man sort of gyms and stuff like that. And then we sort of had the functional movement. If I just move back now to a fitness accreditation because as a teacher myself, I involve in crediting people for the certificate three and four fitness or people to work in the fitness industry. So, going back to the 60s and 70s, most of the gyms, the owners were, the gyms were run by either the owner or a couple of other guys in the gym. That was basically, they would operate through years and years of experience. Those guys had all these years and years of just getting in there doing the weights. You know, sort of, you weren't really universally trained at that point, you know what I mean? Those guys just done it for the love of it, I suppose, if you look at that way. Through the 70s and that, and just don't want to show me age too much and things like that, but in about 1978, we had, or in the mid 70s, they introduced fitness leaders as into gyms and stuff as well. So, we sort of moved into this now, having people working as gym instructors and group exercise people and that sort of thing. So, courses were just two days to start to work in a gym, you know what I mean? That was sort of in the sort of mid 70s, and most of that was aimed at the aerobics group exercise classes, you know what I mean, that type of thing. Just moving the 80s, the fitness leaders that sort of started to develop a little bit more from, you know, there was more injuries were occurring to people, people were getting injured, all these high impact activities, people were jumping in that all the time. It was just so the courses started to grow and develop. We sort of moved from one owner, one two day course, one or two day courses, now having a course over a couple of weeks. And now, we sort of in the 90s now, we have certificate for fitness and certificate for personal trainers. And they vary of different variation of different means of time to do those courses and stuff like that to become, to work in the fitness industry. Everyone happy enough for that part? Okay, just trying to give you a little bit of broad range on the history of the industry. Just my own experience instead of just, oh, I can just sort of go back a little bit for you.
